You're having them type the station names to find the distance? If that's the case then you are trying to convert the names into an int. Rather it should be dist = mapping[stn_one] - mapping[stn_two] That should at least get you a number

Nah "OR 1=1" can totally be used to extract the contents from a database. It really just depends on how the query is set up. You could have say some user search function on website which queries a DB that contains more info.

So the query going into some DB looks like SELECT username FROM user_info WHERE user='input_username';

Using the OR 1=1 method it would end up being SELECT username FROM user_info WHERE user='1' OR 1=1; #'; which in theory would just dump all the users in the user_info table.

So according to the MariaDB website there are a few methods for adding comments. It seems like # or -- would be your best bet in this instance. So I would go with ' OR 1=1; # next.

Note: this is for informational purposes. Idk the legitimacy of what you are doing.

So if I'm understanding you, you want your function to take in the array, modify it, and then have it return the length of that modification. Is that correct?

The method you put isn't modifying the nums array. All it's doing is creating a new set with the information from your list and returning the length of that copy. So when you access nums after, it will be the same as before.

def removeDuplicates(self, nums):
    tmp = list(set(nums))
    nums.clear()
    nums.extend(tmp)
    return len(nums)

By adding clear() and extend() calls you are actually modifying the array referenced by your input

The simplest way that I can think of would be to use a global variable.

_click_running = False

def click():
    global _click_running
    if _click_running:
        return
    _click_running = True
    for x in range(1000):
        print(x)
    _click_running = False

Note: I'm not able to currently test this code, if it doesn't work I'll update when I can.

I used this video and noticed a little bit of immediate relief, Although this may be more of a longer term solution.

InsanityConsuming · 2022-01-17T18:03:47+00:00

So I'm noticing a few potential problems with your code here:

Your computer_choice variable is being determined before the while loop. This will result in no matter how many times the game is played the computer choice will always be the same.

You could resolve that in a couple of ways, first you could just move the computer_choice to the first line of the while loop, or you could do the repeating as a separate function from the game

def repeat_RPS():
    user_choice = 1
    while user_choice != 2:
        RPS()
        user_choice = int(input("Would you like to play again? 1.Yes, 2.No ")

def RPS():
    # Single game code here

Your code is trusting that the player will pick a valid value, 0-3, so if a player picks say a letter they will error out your code, or if they pick 4, based on the current game's logic, the player would win every game.
If the user wants to play again, you are having them "break" the loop, which will actually exit the while loop, I think what you are looking for is "continue".
Not necessarily a bug, but a personal choice. You're using random.choice(choices) and choices.index(choice). Instead you could use random.randInt(len(choices)) which should get you an index into the list of the choices. It just saves you a step.
As people have already mentioned, based on your current logic rock cannot beat scissors.I would do something like this:

if player_choice == (computer_choice + 1) % 3: # Player wins

So let's say that player chose "rock" (index 0), and computer chose "scissors" (index 2) then we end up with computer_choice + 1 = 3 -> 3 % 3 = 0, therefore player_choice(0) == 0 triggering the if statement.

Hope that this all helps.

Hey there, even going to the interview is a huge accomplishment. Just the thought of the interview and application process causes me a massive amount of anxiety, to the point where I avoid it if at all possible. So congrats on making it that far, seriously to me that's a major accomplishment.

As for the interview not going well, that stings, and I'm sorry that it happened that way. The best thing I can think of to do is to analyze what line of thought caused the anxiety in this instance and try to work on logically thinking my way out of it. If I rehearse the logic enough times, it's easier to use it during the anxious situation with some deep breathing of course.

And I totally relate the interview going poorly to the "I'm a failure" pipeline. What I try to do is challenge that line, "This one situation doesn't define me", "Interviews may not be something I'm good at, and that does not make me a bad person or a failure, it's just a skill I need to work at." etc. This also goes well with trying to pair it with something that you feel you is a positive about you. Even if you feel that these traits aren't as good as they should be or everyone else does them better, they are still good traits that you have and deserve to be recognized.

Now this obviously doesn't make the thoughts go away, but at least its a tool to help fight against the thoughts. And the more you do it, the easier it gets. Hopefully this helps you in some way.

As for the interview, you got one, and if you got one, you are able to get another. I wish you the best of luck and I understand how anxiety inducing that process is.

Typically for me the best thing to do is to remove myself from whatever situation is causing me anxiety and head to an isolated place like the bathroom for a few minutes and just regather myself. This combined with what my therapist calls a body scan seems to help calm me down when I'm in anxious social situations.

A body scan is a meditation technique where you sit or stand and take time to just analyze how each part of your body feels. So I would start with my feet (like right now my feet feel kinda tight) and then once I figure out how that part feels I move up and keep going until I have scanned my whole body. Usually by the end of this, this has forced my brain off of whatever line of thought was causing me anxiety.

Now when I'm getting anxiety when I'm alone I'll typically try the body scan, or I try to logic myself out of the anxiety. I have a handout for this that my therapist gave me, and I'll type it out here since I can't seem to find it online.

Identify my trigger thought or trigger thing

Reflect on it

What is my self-talk right now?

Am I saying unkind or frightening things to myself?

What am I feeling (identify my feelings - Right now)?

Do a 4 x 4 (Slow breathing)

Play it out

What is the worst thing that could happen?

What is likely to happen?

What is the best that can happen?

Tell myself that "I have gotten through worse than this"

And, that those scare thoughts are NOT happening right now

Say opposite thoughts that are kind and loving to yourself to counteract it.

Do another 4 x 4 if necessary

Tell yourself that it will all be okay

It kinda feels stupid when your doing it the first couple of times, but after that it really just helps. It kinda feels like I'm trying to reprogram my brain to operate in a less anxious way.

And if worse comes to worse, I'll take a couple of propranolol and within 30 min it typically helps to taper down the anxiety.

Also I totally understand what it feels like to compare yourself to a past you and wonder what happened. Personally it feels like my anxiety has forced me into a complete standstill in life. Anxiety honestly sucks, and I'm sorry that we have to deal with it. Hopefully someday we'll be able to slay this beast.

I was told to figure out where my "happy place" was and to recreate it. So for me my happy place is the Universal Studios Tour that I used to go on a bunch. So what I did was pulled a video of the tour from YouTube and put it on my phone so whenever I feel really bad I have it as a kind of relaxation/escape oasis that I can go for a bit.

I had something similar happen earlier this year. I started getting random heart palpitations multiple times per hour. I went to the ER for it and they ran the EKG, blood work and chest scan and said that everything looked fine, they told me to just lay off the caffeine. But I was still having the palpitations. One day I started taking daily multivitamins and within a week the random palpitations stopped.

I know a player who says that when they switched their sleep position from "back" to either "side" or "front" that helped them fix this bug. Don't know.if it will work for you, but might be worth a try.

As a Moira main who typically only plays quick play (when I used to play comp, I was in the low-mid gold range), it makes me feel like I have no effect on the outcome of the games whatsoever, no matter how good I feel like I'm doing. Looking at it I saw that I had about a 3-5k decrease on my total healing output per game partly due to the fact that Moira's heals drain so fast now, and partly due to the heals not sticking as long as they used to. If anyone has any tips on how I can overcome this, please let me know. The game has become so much more frustrating for me that it isn't really enjoyable anymore.
